What’s the worst deck to ever win a Pro Tour?
While I’m pretty sure it’s still this one I think Magic Pro Tour Legend Olle Rade doesn’t get nearly enough credit for how innovative his deck really was.
While sure, it’s an absolute pile that no one would be caught with in 2024 back in 1996 for how much Olle was doing wrong there’s a lot right about this deck.
At the heart of the first win of one of the greatest Magic players to ever play and a first class Hall of Famer this deck spoke at length about how good Olle was at playing his style, metagaming and honestly outplaying everyone back in the early days.
Looks like Block Constructed got broken again and you won’t believe the creatures that get it done.
Move over Bloomburrow, there are some old school monsters ready to take you back to the third ever MTG Pro Tour.
Doesn’t the fact that anyone won a pro tour with a deck prove in itself that it was not a bad deck?
Yes, absolutely. I think they’re being a little tongue-in-cheek with that but it was Ice Age Block Constructed and Rade came with a brew that was targeted against the current meta.
